The People's Strength That vast, unfathomable consciousness that, for lack of a better name, we call public opinion," is pondering a question ques-tion that, until this year, almost all American citizens had thought was quite definitely answered, catalogued and filed. The question that needs reconsideration in the light of recent events is this : What is democracy? Webster's specific No. 1 definition of democracy is ihisi "Democracy Government by the people ; a form of. gov eminent in which the supreme power is retained by the people peo-ple and exercised either directly or indirectly thru a system of representation. and delegated authority periodically renewed, re-newed, as in a constitutional representative government, or republic." A literal translation of the Greek terms from which our word "democracy" is formed would be "the people's rule" or "the people's strength." Under 'that concept of government the people of the United States of America have built a further elaboration of it known as "majority rule." Majority rule minority ' dissent but conform. The rule of the maiority democracv in America because sense and tolerance enough not vantage of its temporary power by harassing or belittlmp; the minority, not to encroach resnect of the minority. By this method the minority has always been given to know that it might again one day be the majority, when Dy its agitation, dissension and loeic it had convinced "the peo-1 peo-1 pie" of the soundness and justice of its causes. By this means also the minority has kent its patience during the times it has been comDeHed to. fill the role of supernumerary on the stage of national action. True democracy has lwavs that the majority, while holding sway, recognizes and re soects and guards to the utmost the rights and liberties of the minority. Use of ruthless or inconsiderate power by the majority would be little better than the pergnably entrenched minority. Such powerful minorities are in the saddle in certain European countries, and actually refer to their processes as "democratic" because, they say, they represent the will of a grat majority of the people. ,The American democracy; has functioned and flourished ly and emphatically the protection of the rights of the minority. min-ority. It means, positively, that no majority shall change the basic structure of that democracy without the expression of the will of the whole people. The essence of our democracy must not be adulterated by any majority at any time, no matter how large that majority ma-jority may be, and no matter how strong the apparent urgency of the situation. In these things lies "the people's strength." - In the coming campaigns, any number of political stump speakers will continue to read their speeches, figuring that someone has to do it.

It claims that if the PCA persists in its policy many farmers will be forced back on relief rolls. , . I LETTER OF THE LAW : The FCA contends it has no choice, but must act to comply with the law. It points out that a large number of the debts are of several years standing, that leniency repeatedly has been granted, and that congress, which passed the act requiring repayment, repay-ment, alone has the" power to give relief. As' congress adjourned without doine anything: about the matter, the PCA holds there is nothing it can do but to try to collect. Illustrative of the difficulty it has encountered in obtaining repayments re-payments are the following figures: Since 1933 1,383,000 farmers have received a total of $151,000,000 in seed and feed loans. To date 1,256,000 farmers still owe $130,000,00 in unpaid balances. - . ; . $ LTCCOLN-ROOSEVELT A poet came to the White House the other day to study the president.

" "I want to see Roosevelt so I can write better alout Lincoln," he explained. "Their times are similar. Not since Lincoln's time has there been so much chaos as there is today. I expect to get more this way than I can by research in a library." Sandburg stood in the forefront of the crowd at the press conference confer-ence and watched. Instead of finding a president grave and serious, he heard fifteen minutes of banter across the bier desk. PRESIDENTIAL GUIDE Afterward, Sandburg was introduced in-troduced to Roosevelt, and while big shot Democratic leaders wait ed for a conference, the president lost himself in a talk with the poet about relics of Lincoln in the White House.

OREGON POWER WAR Overlooked in the various factional fac-tional rows rocking the Democratic Demo-cratic party has been the merry little scrap between a member of the Roosevelt cabinet, Harold Ickes, and a Democratic governor, Charles H. Martin of Oregon. jviariin, lesuiymg oerore a White House committee on the Bonneville dam bill, later passed by congress, started the fracas by opining: "We have all of our people peo-ple filled up with electricity now; they are just choked with it." Ickes, an advocate of abundant hydroelectrity at low rates, read this and exploded. To a liberal political organization in Oregon he wrote: "No rational person who has imagination and vision and whose spectacles for the future are tinted tint-ed with a public attitude, will submit sub-mit to the argument that there is or can be too much power." COLUMBIA RIVER KEY 1 Behind this exchange of compliments compli-ments is a fight for the control of the greatest hydroelectric supply in the world. For Bonneville dam is the key to Columbia river power, pow-er, which probably will total six times as much as the whole TV A. Governor Martin believes this power should . be controlled bv private utility companies. Ickes believes it should be. controlled by the government. Martin is a retired major general. gen-eral. Elected on a New Deal platform, he is now frankly contemptuous con-temptuous of much of that "platform, "plat-form, and not long ago issued a scorching blast against the Wagner Wag-ner labor act He also described victims of the Dust Bowl as "alien paupers" " and suggested that they leave Oregon, where they had taken refuge.

It will be a pup of as large a breed as the domicile of the child's -parents can comfortably comfort-ably accommodate. Oh, there may be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Still, few parents could resist such a compliment com-pliment to their child, and by 'the time they get over admiring the cuteness of the little beastie they will be so attached to him that he will be a permanent member of the family. By the time the youngster is two years bid the pup will have just about reached "his full size, and will have learned that he is the , partner, and the guardian of that particular child. If in choosing the pup I select a breed so large that the child's parents can't keep him in the city, but are compelled to move A.

I want that pup to grow to mature dohood while his . little master or mistress is going thru the toddling stage and approaching approach-ing kindergarten and first grade age- By the time the child is 6 years old and the dog is 5 or so, there should be a bond of friendship and understanding between them that is a lot stronger than the two words can signify. I hear someone asking if it would be just the thing to do if the first grandchild happens to be a girl baby. Also a question about whether a pup wouldn't be too great an added chore around the house while the bambino bam-bino was so young. I've taken all those things into in-to consideration, and my mind's made up. I'm going to be one of those grandfathers .who speak a piece occasionally to the younger young-er generations and expect to have that piece heeded. Yes, I'll be an old hellion, I expect. This recipe is designed to do the right thing by one kid and one pup, and has not yet been developed to the point of where a second or a third or fourth child comes to the same household. house-hold. But since there is not as yet any grandchild, and no likelihood of any for some years to come, there's plenty of time in which to study the matter.

She was hard put to find an excuse for it. It simply wouldn't do to have her family know she was signaling Stuart Blake. She felt guilty, like a mischievous child, when she stole out of the camp shack and hurriedly attached at-tached the sheet to the clothesline. And soon after she stole out again and took it down. At 10 o'clock she was at the trysting place on Chieftain. Stuart came soon after she arrived. ar-rived. "I wasn't sure you'd be able to make it," she said. "But I wanted to know how you were. I would have ridden on to the Lodge." "I'm perfect. Almost. Thanks again for helping me. I just needed water. Another day without it and I'd have been tied up plenty, I imagine." "You didn't look very happy." "But I feel happy today. Especially Espe-cially now." "Why? What's happened?" She thought she knew what he meant, but she wanted to hear him say it. "I'm with you.". He leaned on his saddle horn and looked ap-pealingly ap-pealingly at her. "Carolee, you told me once .IVl never understand under-stand your .kind of people, as you call them.

Provo Float Built In Jig Time; Night Shift All in Vain Some people have insomnia; insom-nia; others just build floats. But both lose sleep nights it seems . . . And if Clayton Jenkins, chamber of commerce secre-.tary, secre-.tary, gets sued on a "loss of sleep" charge, it's a good bet Farrell Collett and Asael Fisher will have a hand in it. Collett and Fisher are de signers of Utah County Fair's fine float that's taking part in Payson Onion Days this week, figured Saturday in Eureka Days of '49 parade. par-ade. Jenkins stressed on them the need for speed but he didn't quite visualize the alacrity with wbich the talented tal-ented twain would work. Friday morning while the sun still yawned a bit in its waking hours, Fisher called the Jenkins home, routed the secretary out of bed. "Do you want to look at this float; it's all ready and if you "have any suggestions you'd better come down. I'll take it over to Eureka right away then," remarked Fisher. " What for?" queried Jenkins, Jen-kins, "the parade's not till tomorrow morning." Fisher's answer isn't recorded, re-corded, but it's safe to say both he . and Collett said plenty when they found they worEed all night ll1 hours straight to get ready for a Friday event that came off Saturday.

"Oh, forget that. That's history, and more funny than anything. Look, milady, I've brought you a gift. It's little, enough for the favor you did me yesterday." . He gave her a small parcel. She dimpled at him, and the vision she made sent thrills through him. Carolee Colter was pretty, sweet, refreshingly so. She wore rouge often, but it was superfluous. And her curls were natural. She was slightly short, weighed, perhaps, 115. There was ever-so-delicate a snub to her nose. Stuart studied her closely as she unwrapped her gift. "O-o-oh! Stuart!" She lifted it from its tissue a bracelet of silver set with the most perfect of turquoise. One large stone was shaped like an arrow head, barbs and all. Tiny round, ones followed the open circle cir-cle of . the bracelet beautiful blue-green gems which Carolee knew were native to the Arizona hills. The silver was heavy and richly adorned Mth tiny siin symbols, sym-bols, a. swastika, a running. horse, a wiggly snake, Indian signs all. ' "Old Hosteeh made it for me," said Stuart. "Or rather tor. you. He comes to the Lodge sometimes. He's not Apache, like the squaws you saw. He's Navajo. r CHE slipped it on her lovely arm.

'She looked wistfully at him and smiled more sweetly than he had ever before seen her, he thought, v "I don't .:have one. . Boys in school gave me candy, 'and sometimes some-times flowers.

It was obvious that he had touched her; a hint of tears even gustened,- and to save her possible' pos-sible' embarrassment he turned to the scenery" again.'

"Like like a nightmare sometimes. some-times. Noisy -and crowded and ugly. Not always, though. I've had swell times there. You'd love it for a while. But any city is a little synthetic, I think."
